I have a 2005 Cobalt. Its just a LS 2.2L 5-speed. My steering has been acting very funny. Sticking when turning right. Now it could be a few different thing but my main question is…Is the power stearing electron(spelling? I cant spell)? And ofcourse any ideas of whats wrong? Thank You, Jake ---

Well its the steering. The dealership I bought it will good will it. The Cobalt is a 2005 but only 38,XXX miles on it. The car sucks. I would like something new but cant afford it right now. Helping girlfriend through collage. ---

Not looking real promising when you put “cobalt steering problem” into google. Lots of results like this: > **[Cobalt Power Steering Failure](http://www.topix.com/forum/autos/chevrolet-cobalt/T8FMSUQB7V2DTH5JH)** > > Local news and discussion forums for every city in the US, thousands of cities throughout the world.
